The new TEXpress Lanes System is all about choice, predictable travel speeds and congestion relief. Currently, there are nearly 50 miles of TEXpress Lanes open on six north Texas roadways. By the end of 2018, more than 120 miles of lanes on eight roadways will be operating. These lanes form a system across the Metroplex allowing drivers to commute from one side to the other with less congestion.
